Re: [Wrapper-user] Access Denied problem in Windows 7

[Leif M. <lei...@ta...>]

Lars,
Is this something that was working on XP?

Normally when the Wrapper is installed as a service, it is running as
the System user.  I need to very whether or not that use is able to
start and stop other services.  The ability to do so is fairly
restricted.   I would expect that you may need to configure the
Wrapper to run as a specific account before these functions would be
available.

I would also suggest using the Wrapper's methods for controlling other
services.  They require that you set up a simple policy file for
security reasons, but they are pretty easy to use.
http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.org/doc/english/security-model.html

WrapperManager.sendServiceControlCode("myservice",
WrapperManager.SERVICE_CONTROL_CODE_START);
WrapperManager.sendServiceControlCode("myservice",
WrapperManager.SERVICE_CONTROL_CODE_STOP);

See the javadocs for more information:
http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.org/doc/english/javadocs.html

I will play around with this on our Windows 7 test box as well.

Also, which service are you attempting to restart?   If it the current
Java service, this can be done by calling:
WrapperManager.restart();

Cheers,
Leif
